Through your own fault you will lose
    the inheritance(A) I gave you.
I will enslave you to your enemies(B)
    in a land(C) you do not know,
for you have kindled my anger,
    and it will burn(D) forever.”

This is what the Lord says:

“Cursed is the one who trusts in man,(E)
    who draws strength from mere flesh
    and whose heart turns away from the Lord.(F)
That person will be like a bush in the wastelands;
    they will not see prosperity when it comes.
They will dwell in the parched places(G) of the desert,
    in a salt(H) land where no one lives.
